Lord Brockett has admitted that he is considering appearing on the next series of Strictly Come Dancing.
The peer, who has already featured on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here, claimed that he has already been asked twice but both times turned the offer down.
Brockett has now been talked into wanting to compete on the show by his wife, according to the Daily Express. The star said: "They've asked me twice to do Strictly Come Dancing and I've twice said no. But my wife Harriet really wants me to do it, so if they ask me again, I'll probably give in."
Brockett confessed that he would still be nervous about accepting a part on the programme, saying: "I'm just afraid of making a fool of myself - I'm a pretty terrible dancer."
The Eton alumnus, who has served time in prison for conspiracy to commit car insurance fraud, would become the first titled person to appear on the show.
